United KingdomPurchased this to go with with the butterfly house and seedbom to make up a lovely gardening set for a 6 year old. The book is well priced considering it is hard back and very good quality. It's great that you show some of the page content as well as just the front cover as this enabled me to determine if it was the correct level/age appropriate for the recipient. Received quickly and well packaged along with all the other items.

Express postage
Express orders placed after 12 noon will be dispatched the next working day. Depending on your order size and weight, we will send by DHL, which will be fully tracked and delivered the working day after dispatch. Please be aware that an order placed on Thursday at 3pm, will not be dispatched until Friday and may not arrive until Monday. Please also bear in mind that we cannot influence these carriers, so we cannot refund orders that do not arrive in time unless in exceptional circumstances.
Delivery times
We generally use Royal Mail or DHL for our deliveries. We aim to dispatch all orders within 24 hours of the order being placed, Monday to Friday. Delivery with standard Royal Mail is usually 3-5 working days, although this can take longer. If in a hurry, we recommend using our tracked service.
Remote areas
Delivery to remote UK areas including the Isle of Man and the Isles of Scilly may cost more, depending on the weight of the parcel. Delivery to these areas may also take longer than usual. Please get in touch before ordering.
Northern Ireland
Due to Brexit, Royal Mail are the only carrier to deliver our items to Northern Ireland. However, they have restrictions on box weight and size, meaning we cannot send some heavy/large products to Northern Ireland (such as Long Tools or wheelbarrows). Please get in touch if you are unsure.
Packaging
We strongly believe that it is our duty to reduce our environmental impact wherever we can. Therefore, we re-use delivery boxes when appropriate. Don't be alarmed if the box has branding from other companies on it: it will have been carefully packed and have our 'Gardening for Kids' sticker on it. Wherever possible we will pack your parcel plastic free. We are aiming to go completely plastic-free packaging in the very near future.
Returns
If you change your mind or are unhappy with an item you have bought, then you may return it for a full refund of the purchase price within 14 days of delivery. To be eligible for a refund the item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it and in the original packaging. This will be extended after Christmas until 14th January.
Email us at hello@gardeningforkids.co.uk and we'll get back to you with the details. We ask that you cover the return postage and let us know why the item is being returned. This may help us better understand your needs in future. If the item is faulty then let us know. We will cover return postage in this case.
Perishable goods cannot be returned, nor items that have signs of wear or damage. We do not accept responsibility for any seeds or seed kits purchased from us that do not germinate, and we cannot offer refunds based on this. However, please let us know if you are unhappy and we'll see what we can do!
Once your return is received we notify you by email. If all is OK, your refund will be processed, and a credit will be applied to your original method of payment.
